Today the real nausea has set in. Before now, it's just been lurking in the background threatening to surface any day now. I'm hoping I can manage it better than I did with my last pregnancy as DS really needs me to be active with him.

I called the doctor today and HcG is at 1390. That's perfect. I have already put on 5 lbs. Nothing like being stuck in the house in the middle of winter to pack on the pounds! Oh well, lots more where they came from.

Today I took my first home pregnancy test. Although I thought I was pregnant, I did not expect the test to show positive since it's 6 days before my expected period, but my dh was going out of town for business and I thought I'd give it a try. Wow, the result was fast. I peed on the stick first thing in the morning. My husband is happy but as shocked as I am that we got pregnant so quickly.

We have a ds, 21 months old and felt if he were to be a brother, we'd better do it sooner than later. I just quit breast feeding last month and did not expect to get pregnant so quickly-especially because of the statistics for someone my age to get pregnant. I'd only just started my periods again when ds was 16 months old.
